The present invention relates to a method to limit damage by insects and mites in plants, by the use of endogenous plant proteinase inhibitors. More specifically, it relates to the use of serpins comprising an arginine residue in their reactive center loop, like Arabidopsis thaliana serpin-1 to inhibit or limit insect and/or mite damage, such as the damage caused by insect and/or mite feeding.
La présente invention concerne un procédé pour limiter les dégâts provoqués par des insectes et des acariens sur des plantes, en utilisant des inhibiteurs de protéinase endogènes d'origine végétale. Plus précisément, l'invention concerne l'utilisation de serpines comprenant un résidu d'arginine dans leur boucle centrale réactive, telles que la serpine-1 de Arabidopsis thaliana, pour inhiber ou limiter les dégâts provoqués par des insecteset/ou des acariens, tels que les dégâts provoqués par l'alimentation d'insectes et/ou d'acariens.
